In inode_init_always(), we clear the inode mapping flags, which clears
any retained error (AS_EIO, AS_ENOSPC) bits.  Unfortunately, we do not
also clear wb_err, which means that old mapping errors can leak through
to new inodes.

This is crucial for the XFS inode allocation path because we recycle old
in-core inodes and we do not want error state from an old file to leak
into the new file.  This bug was discovered by running generic/036 and
generic/047 in a loop and noticing that the EIOs generated by the
collision of direct and buffered writes in generic/036 would survive the
remount between 036 and 047, and get reported to the fsyncs (on
different files!) in generic/047.

Remove the address_space -&gt;tree_lock and use the xa_lock newly added to
the radix_tree_root.  Rename the address_space -&gt;page_tree to -&gt;i_pages,
since we don't really care that it's a tree.

<title>inode: don't memset the inode address space twice</title>

Noticed when looking at why cycling 600k inodes/s through the inode
cache was taking a total of 8% cpu in memset() during inode
initialisation.  There is no need to zero the inode.i_data structure
twice.

This increases single threaded bulkstat throughput from ~200,000
inodes/s to ~220,000 inodes/s, so we save a substantial amount of
CPU time per inode init by doing this.

end_writeback() to evict_inode()") removed inode_sync_wait() from
end_writeback() and commit dbd5768f87ff ("vfs: Rename end_writeback() to

After these patches there is no sleeping operation in clear_inode().
So, remove might_sleep() from it.

<title>fs: only set S_VERSION when updating times if necessary</title>

We only really need to update i_version if someone has queried for it
since we last incremented it. By doing that, we can avoid having to
update the inode if the times haven't changed.

If the times have changed, then we go ahead and forcibly increment the
counter, under the assumption that we'll be going to the storage
anyway, and the increment itself is relatively cheap.

<title>fs: new API for handling inode-&gt;i_version</title>

Add a documentation blob that explains what the i_version field is, how
it is expected to work, and how it is currently implemented by various
filesystems.

We already have inode_inc_iversion. Add several other functions for
manipulating and accessing the i_version counter. For now, the
implementation is trivial and basically works the way that all of the
open-coded i_version accesses work today.

Future patches will convert existing users of i_version to use the new
API, and then convert the backend implementation to do things more
efficiently.

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
superblock flags.

The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the

Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call,
while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb-&gt;s_flags.

The script to do this was:

    # there are two places where we really deal with superblock flags.

<title>locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()</title>

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.

For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.

However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()

// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

virtual patch

- ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2
+ WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2)

churn.

However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()

// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:
 "This fixes d_ino correctness in readdir, which brings overlayfs on par
  with normal filesystems regarding inode number semantics, as long as
  all layers are on the same filesystem.

  There are also some bug fixes, one in particular (random ioctl's
  shouldn't be able to modify lower layers) that touches some vfs code,
  but of course no-op for non-overlay fs"

* 'overlayfs-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs:
  ovl: fix false positive ESTALE on lookup
  ovl: don't allow writing ioctl on lower layer
  ovl: fix relatime for directories
  vfs: add flags to d_real()
  ovl: cleanup d_real for negative
  ovl: constant d_ino for non-merge dirs
  ovl: constant d_ino across copy up
  ovl: fix readdir error value
  ovl: check snprintf return
